Data file name and access path

Data file pathname of the final application. The pathname set can be absolute or relative to the structure file. Two syntaxes are accepted:

  • Windows:
    C:\mybase\folder\mydata.4DD (absolute)
    \folder\mydata.4DD (relative)
  • Mac OS (HFS):
    Macintosh HD:folder:mydata.4DD (absolute)
    :folder:mydata.4DD (relative)

You should choose the syntax depending on the platform that the final application will be running on.

If this key is missing or invalid, on the initial startup of the final application, 4D displays a standard open file dialog box so that the user can indicate the location of the data file.
